of its more than half million
readers during 1893. The sum
of M.SOO was awarded for seven

QUEEN ESTHER'S FEAST,
The Ancient Purim Celebrated in

ber Thursday night last, the

sented a brilliant scene. Beauti
ful women, gallant beaux, daz
zling lights, handsome costumes
and the sweet strains of music
all blended to make a picture of
fairy land. In the graceful
movements of the waltz and the
polka and the pleasing figures
of the lanciers,|vouth made mer
ry dancing in beautiful time to
tne exquisite music of the Italian
band of Columbia. Queen
Esther and her court, in all the
splendor of ancient days, was

A Negro Crushes the Skull of Another
With a Axe.
[Sumter Watchman, Mch. 1.1
A homicide of the most brutal
character occurred on the place
of Dr. Moore, near Hagood, on
last Thursday night. Commo
dore Council, without just cause
or provocation killed Edmond
Singleton by crushing his skull
with a single blow with an axe.
Council is a negro with a very
bad reputation, while Singleton
has always been regarded a
steam and lighted by electricity. I P^eaWe and worthy man.
The whole is surrounded by 814 .^ excuse for the murder
acres of land for farming and 1 8 iven b y Council is that Single-
experimental purposes. The
total expense of the ten months
term is put down at $104, in
cluding board, medical atten

which are tobemilitary. Those
who pay tuition will be charged
forty dollars in addition to this.

ANOTHER FIRE.
Mr. H M. Smith’s Barn Falls Victim to
the Hungry Flames.
Shortly before Mr. Wein
stein’s building on Pearl Street
was burned on Monday night,
fire visited Mr. H. M. Smith.
About seven o’clock that even
ing the barn at his residence,
Chancellor Dargan’s old place
on the north side of Swift Creek,
was destroyed. The flames also
consumed the contents of the
building which consisted of a
lot of hay, cotton seed, seven
stacks of fodder, a wagon and
a number of farming imple
ments.
Mr. Smith scarcely had time
to save his stock, and, in fact,
it was done with great difficul
ty. His loss is estimated at|
$1,000 and upon this he had on
ly $200 insurance. Mr. Smith
is satisfied from thecircumstan-
ces attending the fire that it is
the work of an incendiary.
A True Story.
A gentleman well known in
literary and social circles of
New York entered an elevated
car the other day, and took his
seat beside a lady who chanced
to De an acquaintance. After a
few minutes’ conversation, he
said :
“You rememb *r when I jnet
you on an L car about a
ton cursed him. The facts are
that Council was cursinp" his
wife and Singleton who happen
ed to come up, remarked that
he ought not curse his wife so.
Council cursed Singleton who
replied in a like manner. Coun
cil then picked up an axe and
struck Singleton on the head,
crushing his skull.
Council went to a house near
at hand and told a negro that he
had hit Singleton with an axe,
but did not know whether he
was dead or not. He asked the
negro to find out whether Single-
ton was dead or not and let him
know. The negro went to where
Singleton was, a small crowd
having collected in the mean
time, and found that h||> was
dead. Upon learning this Coun
cil left and has not been seen
since. Some persons think that
he has gone to North Carolina
where he has relatives, while
others think he is hiding in
Wateree Swamp. Sheriff Sanders
Iffisa constable hunting him,
and if he long escapes capture
it will be surprising.
The negroes in the vicinity of
Hagood have been somewhat
excited and stirred up over th#
murder, but the statement is
made upon the most reliable
authority that all talk of lynch
ing, in the case of capture, is
the merest bosh.

THE COUNTRY BOY.

in
A Tribute to Him from One
Knows Whereof he Speaks.
We have spent much of
last thirty-four years
farmers’ homes, and have
seen that boy—the c o u n -
try lad as he is. He rises early;
he is acquainted with and in
terested in all the stock and
poultry ; he knows all the coun
try round; he is acquainted with
every bug and worm, bird and
animal, tree and fiower, weed
and cereal on the farm. He has
a good appetite and good diges
tion, and his sleep is sweet and
refreshing. He reads thought
fully the great book of nature,
whose leaves open before him
day by day. He loves his fath
er and mother and calls them
such, and he loves his sweet
heart as no town boy does, and
is loved in turn by her as no
town boy is. He works hard
all day and when night comes he
enjoys a frolic with a healthful
zest, and then lies down to
peaceful dreams. He grows to
man's estate with the rich heri
tage of good health, a clean,
pure character, industrial hab
its, a mind well stored with
knowledge, gained by the fire
side and the reading of good
books and newspapers, affec
tionate and trusting in his dis
position, polite and courteous
though perhaps somewhat awk
ward in his manners, and every
way well equipped for the bat-
| tie of life. He knows nothing
